How to handle urls with hash(#)

[aristidesfl]

I want to have the following template seach:

Code: Select all

http://translate.google.com/#auto|en|*

The problem is that the some characters are converted and it ends up like this:

Code: Select all

http://translate.google.com/%23auto%7Cen%7C*

The following is working for me (replace each | with %7C and your # will survive intact):

Code: Select all

http://translate.google.com/#auto%7Cen%7C*

There is an alternate URL syntax found in this post (http://forums.obdev.at/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=5067&p=16673&hilit=translate.google#p16640) which seems to tell Google Translate to use whatever language pair you used last time.
